Autostart
I just got my car back from a shop that installed an auto start on my 92 se 5spd. Now my car is misfiring badly. It putts a little at idle but the higher the rpm the worse it putts. Kinda like if you ever get water in a distributer cap. What do you think is causing this. He said he can fix it but I dont want him tearing into my engine blindly.
Please Help |
he didn't tap in the tach signal correctly is my guess
|
what should i tell him to do. the auto start isnt even working. He said the injectors might be gummed up from starting it over and over again. He was working on it from 8:20 am to 9:30 somthing pm. IM highly peeved.
|
I looked at my car this morning in the light and noticed that there is a wire spliced to one of my injectors. I dont like the lookes of the job. any ideas
|
should have done it yourself.
took me a bit long because the color codes on my harness didn't match the color codes that everybody said it should be. Good thing I know how to use a test light :wiggle: BTW I run without a tach hookup :noes: |
Wow, that sucks.... I didn't install my own remote starter, but I looked at the diagrams and I'm pretty sure that nothing is supposed to be spliced into the injectors like that. Sounds like the shop didn't know what it was doing. I'd take it back there and ask them to check over the install.
|
Yeah, we have a tach wire, there is no need to tap into an injector. He didn't hook it up right.
|
does it get better when you disconnect that wire?
|
i can take a ride up to ur place im in jersey but you got to pay for travel time or you come to me i do it for freee!!!!
|
Thanx for the offer. Im just going to wait till it gets warm and do it myself. I dont have a garage and I wasnt sure how long this nice weather was going to hold up. But i guess it can wait. Every job ive done myself has worked perfectly. Every job i took to a shop was jacked up. Lets hope they get my paint right.
|
im in jersey also and i installed my remote start without a hitch. there is two ignition wires that must be hooked up, then the clutch switch must be bypassed, and the tach signal tapped, NOT AND DEFINITLY NOT the injector....i say sue his *** for negligence...
|
in the mean time you should unhook it from your injector then hook to your tach (i forgot which color, ill look later)
and did he even hook it to the nutruel sensing wire??can it start in gear ??can the starter move the car?? |
